Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== Improvements to SJA1105 DSA RX timestamping This series makes the sja1105 DSA driver use a dedicated kernel thread for RX timestamping, a process which is time-sensitive and otherwise a bit fragile. This allows users to customize their system (probabil an embedded PTP switch) fully and allocate the CPU bandwidth for the driver to expedite the RX timestamps as quickly as possible. While doing this conversion, add a function to the PTP core for cancelling this kernel thread (function which I found rather strange to be missing). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
